At first glance, funny and endearing Jack Trakarsky is your typical suburban guy-next-door; he has a steady job and is married to his soulmate, Emma.

To complicate things further, Jack has realized his biological clock is ticking louder and louder.

Greg Poehler is an American actor, writer, comedian and producer, known for creating and starring in the NBC sitcom Welcome to Sweden.

Around the same time, Poehler began writing the script for Welcome to Sweden, which was largely based on his life. Greg served as showrunner, executive producer head writer and lead actor of the series. After airing in Sweden, Welcome to Sweden was eventually bought by NBC, where it aired for two seasons during the summer. Welcome to Sweden went on to win awards in 2015 for Best Comedy at BANFF and Best International Comedy at the Monte Carlo TV Festival, where Poehler was also nominated for Most Outstanding Actor. Throughout the run of the series, Poehler was able to work with Welcome to Sweden's impressive roster of cameos, including Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Aubrey Plaza, Gene Simmons, Jason Priestley, Paul Simon and Greg's real-life sister, Amy Poehler.

She landed a handful of guest star roles on series including “True Justice,” “The Eleventh Victim,” “Psych, and “Seed” before joining the cast of “Rookie Blue” [Global in Canada, Universal Channel in the UK, and ABC in the US] in 2013.

It was her role as quirky and fearless rookie police officer Chloe Price that solidified Faia as “one to watch” in the entertainment industry. She was named one of “Canada’s Shining Stars” in Real Style Magazine, and was nominated for a 2016 Leo Award and a 2014 Canadian Screen Award for her work on the show. Faia appeared as Chloe Price for three seasons, quickly becoming a fan favorite after being introduced in season four.

EXECUTIVE PRODUCER

In 2001, John Scott Shepherd’s debut novel Henry’s List of Wrongs garnered strong reviews, culminating in his selection as one of Publisher Weekly’s Best New Writers. The next several years saw multiple pieces of development including a second novel and two produced films (Joe Somebody starring Tim Allen and Life or Something Like It starring Angelina Jolie). In 2004, Shepherd’s limited-run summer series The Days aired on ABC to excellent reviews. He wrote every episode and directed the last, clarifying his vision of “authoring” original television programming. His premium cable spec Save Me sold in a competitive bid to Showtime before landing on NBC in 2013 starring Anne Heche, earning Shepherd a place among Variety’s TV Scribes to Watch. Shepherd’s rare blend of experience has allowed him to write each of the three seasons of You Me Her like 10 chapters of a novel before overseeing production, where the 300-page script is filmed like a five-hour movie.
